    I’m going to go with ‘not dying’ as the achievement of the year.

    Sounds easy but boy, has it not been.

    Had heart failure in 2022, and at some point in early 2023 it turns out I had a stroke and that seriously fucked up my head and destroyed my vision (I went meme-levels of cross-eyed).

    2024 was recovery and uh, was not the smoothest. But fuck it, I’m almost normal and I didn’t completely torch anything and so, yay.

    I started to regularly work out. It’s amazing what the right hormones can do to your brain and you start to care about your own body again.

    I shot my shot. It didn’t go as I hoped. But I tried the thing (starting a business) and now I can have to move on.

      Same, but at least we tried to do the thing and can move on to some other thing.

      Oddly enough while dedicating all my attention to my new business, my old one that is nearly completely passive picked up. Had I just focused on that instead of a new startup I would have been better off. But at least all hope is not lost.

    Went back to therapy when I knew I needed it instead of trying to “man up” my way through it.

    Got back on track with diet and exercise, to an extent. One of the last things my grandma said to me before she died was, “You look like you’ve lost weight, good for you.”
